269 The Powerful Sacred Fire Mage

Su Wan had Xu Yuan by her side. So, she wasn’t disappointed. She knew that she could become stronger too.

Secondly, they had received the Heavy Blade Warriors. The physical damage that these puppets inflicted was unimaginable. The four Lords were stronger now because they had these puppets. The puppets were valuable, especially if they had to go to war.

The third gain was the crystal. The SSS-class Crystal of Gloom had three powerful abilities that would surely come in handy.

Additionally, they had gained gems and cores in this expedition. They were very valuable too. Su Wan was especially happy because she needed a lot of gems for the construction of the Hero Altar.

The Fire Elemental Cores were the real deal. They could enhance and strengthen equipment and weapons.

“Enemies are attacking!”

Everyone froze. The four Lords turned around to look. From a distance, figures riding on wolves were making their way to them.

They looked disgusting, like rags left in dirty water.

The wolves looked ragged and rotten. The wolves opened their mouths and saliva dripped on the floor. The stench was unimaginable.

On the back of the wolves were yellow sand orcs, who gripped the reins and rode them furiously.

They were the Orc Mount Wolf Riders. At the center of the pack was a whitish wolf that was taller and bigger than the rest. The leader of the orcs rode on it. It was covered in scars. One of its eyes was gruesome. It was probably shot by an arrow.

They roared and charged toward the group.

The orc leader raised its hand and made a throat-slitting gesture. The other orcs cheered.

The orc leader snorted and eyed the Heavy Blade Warriors. Its eyes were filled with greed. The tremors had attracted their attention, and they had ridden to the ruins to check. When they reached the mountain range, they saw a huge bronze door instead of the mountain wall.

Without the key, they couldn’t enter. Until now…

When they saw Su Wan open the doors, they waited. Now, everything would be theirs!

With a howl, the orc leader charged. The Orc Mount Wolf Riders looked terrifying.

Su Wan turned to Lin Yao. “Lin Yao, it’s your turn to shine.”

Lin Yao nodded and raised her staff. The power boiled like magma. A fiery red light rose, and the sand was blown up into a storm. It revolved around Lin Yao.

The sand and fire merged into a tornado.

The orc leader’s eyes widened at the sight. It was astonishing to see a human in the middle of a tornado. The sand merged with the flames and illuminated everything.

The orc leader was terrified. An unspeakable fear gripped its heart. ‘A mage!’

The human Overlord was a mage!

“Kill her!!!” roared the orc leader. The riders followed the order and charged.

Lin Yao was in the middle of the tornado. She narrowed her eyes. She felt in control of the fire and the sand. It felt as though the fire was just an extension of her body.

Hundreds of Orc Mount Wolf Riders rushed forward. Their faces showed only bloodlust.

Lin Yao raised her hand and looked at the orc leader. She extended her right hand, which was encased in flames. The ground erupted. Flames raged like waves and surged in all directions. It was a disaster.

The wolf riders looked at the rising sea of fire in fear. The towering wall of flames was enough to burn mountains and cities.

The orc riders tried to run, but the wall of sand and fire descended on them. The sand and firestorm then raised anew and fell with a force. When everything returned to silence, the riders were all burned and buried under the sand.

Lin Yao let out a long sigh. Although A-grade magic skills were powerful, they consumed too much energy. It not only depleted her mana but also exhausted her magic reserve.

Su Wan and the others had been very envious of Lin Yao’s new ability. However, when she explained the drawbacks of using such a power, they felt that it wasn’t really that great after all.

Lin Yao took a few full breaths and steadied herself.

The orc lord had retreated. It was in despair. Its elite troops had been burned and buried! ‘Is this really a human?’

It wondered if there was any other way to fight the humans. It couldn’t withstand another wave of that attack even if it had a thousand elites under its command.

The orc leader’s resolve was shaken. It led the surviving riders and fled the place in fear.
